Experience
Years of experience: 40. Registered at ProZ.com: Aug 2008.
I am a 1991 graduate of Tallinn Conservatory in Tallinn, Estonia, where I studied music education, child psychology, choir conducting and voice. Was always very eager to learn to communicate in English.
First gained experience in middle school and actively used my interpreter knowledge with exchange students from Eastern Germany.
While a student in Conservatory, performed interpretive duties on various tours, and gained major interpreter experience as a concert administrator in Tallinn Philharmonic Society. I managed music festivals of all kinds (including International Organ Festivals, Chamber Music and Jazz Festivals) and assisted foreign musicians.
I arrived in San Francisco in 1992. Took the duties of an assistant organizer of West Coast Estonian Days. Interpreted and translated various events, conducted the Estonian Mixed Choir, was an Estonian community organist and an accordionist for Estonian folk dancers until 1995.
Moved to San Diego in 1995, my experience has included working with various Estonian Delegations in America.
I am eager to find more jobs as an Estonian-English interpreter. Hope through this website you can find me directly. Most recent experience includes Second Line Defense Training Interpreter in WA.
